128 Departure
That biped isn't just with the prairie king, there's even a giant elephant standing next to him? What? And a zebra? Aren't zebras prey?
Yes, in the eyes of the animals, Qiao Jinnian is really a weirdo. He has to roast his food over a fire, his hunting methods are all kinds of weird, and he always tinkers with a bunch of messy things that seem useless.
So, why did she drop herself in the air?
The animals couldn't understand and were shocked!
On the contrary, the lion father who had seen her tinkering with those stone flying tiger claws didn't even give her a look, saying that whatever the cubs did was normal, no matter what they did.
After getting the Pegasus Claw, Qiao Jinnian looked for various terrains along the way to try out his newly created escape tool.
Because she invented the lasso, she has recently become more interested in hunting large animals.
Originally, the lion father usually went hunting by himself, but recently, because she wanted to practice her new skills, the lion father just stood aside and watched her hunt.
Sometimes, when Qiao Jinnian was holding the leash and running after large animals, she would think that perhaps her lion father was deliberately training her hunting skills.
For example, when they went out on patrol, the lion father would become very lazy and let Reiner hunt by himself, so the lion brother's hunting skills improved by leaps and bounds.
Now, her lion father will not teach her hunting skills. After all, the method she uses has nothing to do with the lion's hunting method, so she can only explore on her own. Her father does not just lie there as usual. Instead, he stands aside and does not participate in hunting, but provides a strong sense of security.
In this way, even if the cub is in danger of life, the father can rescue it in time.
With her father standing by her side, Qiao Jinnian, who was already very confident, is now even more fearless.
After several times of practice, she has become very proficient in using the lasso, and her hunting success rate has greatly increased.
But every time, she would follow her prey for a long, long time until she ran the prey to death.
She didn't mind this. She just thought of it as running practice. She was supposed to practice her physical fitness every day.
However, this hunting method is fine in the rainy season, but in the dry season or during the day in the desert area, she may suffer from heatstroke.
Therefore, she would combine all her hunting methods, lassoing large prey and then attacking with a spear, or using her arm strength to jump onto the horse's back and finish off the prey with a flint knife.
This requires her to adjust her hunting methods according to actual conditions.
They hunted all the way and continued to move south. They passed by the black mud pool, made salt for a few days, and passed through the southern grassland. Qiao Jinnian and the lion father decided to take another look at their own lion group.
This time, they hadn't seen each other for several months, so the father and daughter were still waiting at the edge of the lion's territory and did not go in.
This time, the little lions all knew this strange two-legged elder and wanted to run over to play with Qiao Jinnian very skillfully.
Looking at these cubs, who were already five or six months old, and then at her own small body, Qiao Jinnian said, "A full 16 cubs, how terrifying! If they all rushed over, she would definitely be lying on the ground, unable to get up..."
Sister Sa also realized that the little lions had grown up. Although the cubs were tall, they did not look strong and might not be able to bear it, so she roared at the little lions and sent them away.
He rubbed his forehead against every lioness to show his affection.
The female lions also came forward and rubbed their heads against the old lion king to show their intimacy.
Watching the lion father nodding heads with every lioness, Qiao Jinnian felt that his own lion pride was truly a unique wonder on the grassland. Perhaps his own lion father was the only lion king who would proactively find a successor and abdicate while still able to do so...
Of course, as the only two-legged creature in the world, Qiao Jinnian knows that he is the biggest weirdo.
After thinking about it, Qiao Jinnian discussed it with Sister Sa, and gestured to indicate that he wanted to make some marks for the little lions.
The meaning is very easy to understand. As long as Qiao Jinnian uses the sharp thorns to poke the little lion's butt, Sister Sa will instantly remember that the cub had tattooed words on the butts of the previous batch of cubs.
Although Sister Sa didn't understand why the cub did this, it was just a tattoo and it wouldn't do any harm to the little lion. At most it would just be a little painful.
So, Sister Sa agreed, and the lioness mothers had also seen what Qiao Jinnian had done before, so they all acquiesced.
Qiao Jinnian has left the lion group and no longer belongs to this group, but the lionesses allow her to tattoo the butt of each cub. It can be seen that this is a rare thing for a lionesse who is protecting her cubs!
This shows the lionesses' utmost trust in Qiao Jinnian, which is against nature and the nature of lionesses.
Protecting cubs and not allowing any other lion to approach their cubs is an instinct given to lioness mothers by nature, but this trust in Qiao Jinnian has overwhelmed this instinct.
Qiao Jinnian's eyes were a little wet, this was a heavy trust.
From now on, as long as Qiao Jinnian lives in this world, whenever she sees the descendants with tattoos on their buttocks, as well as the descendants of those descendants, she will try her best to protect all the descendants of her lion group!
Because, those are also my father’s descendants.
The little lions were called over, and each male lion was picked up by Qiao Jinnian. They were poked by sharp thorns on their butts and screamed in pain.
"Awooo, wooo, wooo——" The little lions became angry instantly, not understanding why this strange elder was hitting them?
Did they do something wrong? Why did they have to accept such a painful punishment?
However, because they were warned by their grandmother, the little lions did not dare to resist. They could only howl pitifully to express their grievances: "Awoo, roar, woo, woo—"
Qiao Jinnian used the thorns from the acacia tree to tattoo the purple number 1 on all the lions in this batch.
The number 1 represents the first generation, and the purple color is for distinction, indicating that this batch is all the descendants after the lion father left. After all, there are too many descendants, and it is difficult to tell which are Reiner's descendants and which are the descendants of F4.
Xiaobai seems to have not grown up yet and has no offspring, so there is no white lion in this batch of little lions.
Later, she saw male lions with tattoos on their buttocks in the wild. They would tattoo the number 2 on their offspring to indicate that they were their descendants.
This was her plan. Although it was very confusing, it was the only way. At least she knew that these were all the descendants of her own lion group.
As for the lioness, she could find her as long as she returned to the southern grasslands, so there was no need for tattooing.
Then, Qiao Jinnian went with the lion father to see the lion group of her two sisters.
The lion pride in the eastern valley has expanded because the female lion cubs have grown up. There are no male lions in the pride, but there are several adult female lions, so there is no problem with food.
Seeing that the sisters' lion group was relatively stable, Qiao Jinnian, the lion father, and a group of friends continued to head southwest!
This time, they appeared again in the middle area between the river lion group and the southern grassland lion group, and saw the old golden-haired lion again.
This time, the lion father took the initiative to meet with the golden retriever and expressed his friendship. After all, they were once allies, and the past was gone with the wind.
However, perhaps because he knew that he might have to move to the southwest grasslands completely, the lion father thought about it and decided to invite the golden retriever to go to the southwest grasslands with him.
The golden retriever is already very old, it's like an old man inviting another old man to live with him in his old age.
Well, the golden retriever has been wandering around the river lion group, and he probably has some feelings for the river lion group.
Thinking of his increasingly weak body, Golden Retriever actually agreed to his lion father's request and decided to set out with him to live in another grassland.
Qiao Jinnian: "..."
The lion father once again made a human-like move. He actually invited his old friends to live with him in retirement?
Moreover, this old friend was his former comrade-in-arms, but he and another comrade-in-arms betrayed him. Now he not only forgives his comrade-in-arms, but even invites him to a new place!
Qiao Jinnian began to suspect that the lion father’s IQ was really super high. A very scary thought kept circling in her mind. Could it be that the lion father was influenced by her and slowly began to develop in the direction of humans?
Then, this very large magical combination moved all the way south from the northern grassland, passing through one lion territory after another, attracting animals to stop and watch, and becoming a major landscape on the grassland.
When passing through the dense forest, Qiao Jinnian must say hello to Meigu, his friend Black Panther. After all, it is unknown how long it will take for him to come here again.
The other animals were too big to fit in, but the jackal and the honey badger were small, so they followed her in.
Because the lion father knew that the leopards here would not harm his cubs, he did not enter the dense forest.
This is the advantage of having many friends. The lion father does not have to force himself to enter the dense forest environment because his cubs have friends to accompany them.
"Woo--" Qiao Jinnian came to the Black Panther's territory and called out loudly to the Black Panther.
This time, the black panther did not hide itself intentionally. It quickly jumped down from the tree, and its emerald green eyes scanned her up and down several times, as if it didn't recognize her.
Qiao Jinnian waved at him and he came over.
It was not until she reached out and rubbed his chin several times that Black Panther felt that the feeling was quite familiar. Oh, the smell was also quite familiar. That's right, this was the two-legged beast.
"Gurgle gurgle——" Black Panther couldn't help but make a comfortable sound.
However, he looked at the two small animals on the ground again. One was the prairie flathead brother, which he hated very much. He knew very well that this kind of animal was not easy to mess with, and once you messed with it, you would never be able to get rid of it. There was another kind that was not to be feared.
Raising his eyes again, Black Panther looked at the two-legged beast in front of him. He didn't understand why Honey Badger wanted to follow this two-legged beast?
He had been living alone. Except for hunting, he spent the rest of his time sleeping on tree branches. He lived a comfortable life and sometimes went to fight with his wife.
After spending some time with Black Panther, Qiao Jinnian stood up and prepared to say goodbye.
The panther blinked and jumped onto the branch again, watching her leave.
But this time he opened his big emerald eyes wide, what did he see?
That biped wasn't just with the prairie king, but there was even a giant elephant standing next to him? What? And a zebra? Aren't zebras prey?
Black Panther: “…” What’s going on?
